Riverdale’s Henry good to go Saturday

MURFREESBORO — Riverdale junior guard Ashley Henry is expected to be available for the Lady Warriors’ Class AAA state championship matchup Saturday.

During the fourth quarter of Riverdale’s semifinal game against Memphis Overton, that hardly appeared to be the case.

Henry went down and was unable to support herself when she attempted to get up. She was eventually helped to the team’s bench area by Coach Hillary Hodges and the team trainer, and did not return for the remainder of the 66-40 win.

“She suffered a deep bruise in her foot in the region semifinals,” Hodges said after the game. “She didn’t (get it taped) like she should have. But she’ll be ready to go.”
